Giants' Aeverson Arteaga: Having modest season in A ball
Arteaga is hitting .260/.331/.421 with 11 homers, eight steals and a 36:121 BB:K through 98 games for Single-A San Jose.
Arteaga hasn't exactly popped in full-season ball, with his power production down from last season despite playing this year in the hitter-friendly California League. His mediocre batting average would also be worse if not for a rather high .343 BABIP. There's no need to rush to judgment on the 19-year-old shortstop, but Arteaga will need to scorch the ball considerably harder to make up for his fairly high 26.9 percent strikeout rate.

Giants' Aeverson Arteaga: Bat getting positive reviews
Arteaga has "a swing on which I'll gladly bet," according to Keith Law of The Athletic.
He certainly looked good in his first taste of pro ball last year, hitting .294/.367/.503 with nine homers while going a perfect 8-for-8 on steal attempts across 56 games with the rookie-level Giants Orange. Arteaga got into one game at Low-A to end the season, but he's been playing with the High-A club during spring training; that said, it's unclear where he'll be assigned. Either way, he's a name to watch as he enters his first full professional season.
